Ward F Councilwoman Viola Richardson and Rolando Lavarro are officially the winners of last week’s Jersey City special election, according to final results posted yesterday by the Hudson County Clerk’s Office.

Richardson is the top vote-getter, with 4,102 votes, while Lavarro came in second, with 3,558, the results show. Lavarro, a New Jersey City University official, led third-place finisher Suzanne Mack by 226 votes, according to the results.

Richardson and Lavarro will serve out the terms of Mariano Vega and Willie Flood as at-large representatives.

The council will now have to appoint someone to fill Richardson’s Ward F seat until a special election next November.
